authors of “Digital Korea” draw attention to the dynamic changes taking place
in Korea and introduce readers to digital lifestyles that will be experienced around
the world in the near future. The 12 case-study reports are particularly useful
to those who want to learn about the “Digital Nirvana” in Korea. “Digital
Korea” is a must-read book showing us that the future of Digital Society is
close at hand rather than an abstraction about a remote future.”

us working with the digital youth and struggling to understand the trends that
are shaping our digital futures this book is priceless. A lot of what we in the

case studies and behavioural analysis this is a hugely rewarding read for
anyone needing to gain insights into how digital society may evolve over here
and how innovation is moving ever faster – ‘bballi bballi’!”

"Although wary
of another book claiming that the world has forever changed, I have been won
over by this deeply impressive book. Packed full of statistics, examples and
case studies, the arguments are well supported and persuasive.The authors provide a comprehensive
exploration of this emerging topic which is presently unrivalled.
Thought-provoking and practical, you will be hard pressed to find a more
challenging marketing book this year."

Institute of Marketing(CIM)

"While the
new mediado offer
companies new opportunities to communicate with their customers, their
principal effect is to provide customers with many more ways of communicating with
each other. This book is invaluable in predicting how the power to make and
break brands will reside far more with ordinary people than with
companies."

"This is
an eye-opener with a key message essential for all consumer centred
enterprises.An excellent, reassuring
book! In 5 years time it will be called a classic - the new bible for new
marketeers."

-
Dr Axel Alber, Marketing Director, Masterfoods Europe

"This book
provides a comprehensive understanding as to why business, media and customers
will never be the same again; where interrupting audiences and one-way flows of
marketing communications are things of the past."

vividly illustrate the rapidly growing power of digital communities with
examples of real cases where companies have achieved considerable business
success by being creative and engaging customers.”

-
Harry Drnec, Managing Director Red BullUK

University of Californiaas a
required text."
